LIFE CHOICES – DEALING WITH THE TRINITY WITHIN – THE I, ME, MYSELF

By Leave a Comment

LIFE CHOICES – DEALING WITH THE TRINITY WITHIN – THE I, ME, MYSELF: THE THREE ENEMIES THAT HINDERS DESIRED ALTITUDE!

“I therefore so RUN, NOT AS UNCERTAINLY; so FIGHT I, NOT AS ONE THAT BEATETH THE AIR: 27 but I keep UNDER MY BODY (I, ME, MYSELF), and BRING IT INTO SUBJECTION: lest that by any means, when I have PREACHED to others, I MYSELF should be a CASTAWAY” 1 Corinthians 9:26-27 Emphasis Mine.

Everyone craves for a high and higher rise in life. There’s the more earnest desire for an onward and upward trajectory irrespective of any, and it’s deepened in every human subconscious thought. And higher heights are born in our ATTITUDE for such ALTITUDE we earnestly desired and yearns daily to attain. Unfortunately for some, the enemies within them have created their stunted growth and success and excellence and such like.

“Love not the world [the worlds mindset], neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the LUST of the FLESH, and the LUST of the EYES, and the PRIDE of LIFE, is not of the Father, but is of the world” 1 John 2:15-17.

The THREE ENEMIES are the – I, ME, MYSELF – that’s within the humans, which is of the flesh [fleshy] and that needs to be urgently brought down and under subjection [control, discipline] if one must constantly be ahead in LIFE and GODLINESS in Christ Jesus stead for His blessedness. And these three enemies within of the I, Me and Myself, are as a result and consequence of these factors:

 ** The lust of the flesh

 ** The lust of the eyes

 ** The pride of life

These three factors are ENEMIES of the faith and the makeup of the trinity within us – I, ME and MYSELF, which otherwise are aligned as the ME, ME and ME; and these enemies that have enveloped and engrossed humanity brings about the self-centeredness and self-gratifications attitudes and mannerisms in all respect that we experience day to day about us – directly or and indirectly.

However, life is about CHOICE and CHOICES for all, and it’s up to anyone to being mindfulness, and if otherwise, to not being mindfulness, in respect to the three enemies that are elements of self-destruction; suffice to know that one’s choice or choices can make and unmake the worlds of success, fulfilment and excellence, in doing LIFE and living in GODLINESS.

“For though we WALK in the flesh, we do not WAR after the flesh: 4 (for the WEAPONS of our WARFARE are not CARNAL, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 CASTING down IMAGINATIONS, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the OBEDIENCE of Christ; 6 and having in a readiness to REVENGE all DISOBEDIENCE, when your OBEDIENCE is FULFILLED” 2 Corinthians 10:3-6.

There’s the need to diligently check and guard your being by the Holy Spirit, as the chief inward and outward trajectory examiner to indicate any of the signs and presence of the I, ME, MYSELF elements that can result to – the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, by the illuminating light of the WORD of God.

“Your WORD is a LAMP to my feet and a LIGHT to my path . . . 130 The ENTRANCE of Your WORDS gives LIGHT; it gives understanding to the simple” Psalms 119:105, 130/NKJV.

You are the DECIDED of your ARISING and ALTITUDE, therefore make the wise CHOICE today – to bring your body under; I mean, to subjugate the five SENSES [which is of what you – see, hear, taste, smell and touch/feel], and of the trinity you of the I, ME, and MYSELF – to the lead and influence of the Holy Spirit, to guide and guard you, under the authority and power of the WORD of God. That’s the only Kingdom cause way for you to live in DOMINION, be A MORE THAN CONQUERORS, be an OVERCOMER, be TRIUMPHANT and VICTORIOUS, in doing life and living godly, in everyway in God’s BLESSEDNESS, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Know full well that your ATTITUDE is an indicator of your CHARACTER. And your CHARACTER is an indicator of your PERSON. And your PERSON, which is born of your ATTITUDE does not only defines you, but it’s what will SUSTAIN you in your desired ALTITUDE when you arrived at it. Hence, a no-GOOD ATTITUDE means an ILLUSION to your DESIRED ALTITUDE and the SUSTAINABILITY of your person and personality, in the POSITION of ALTITUDE.

“I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: 27 but I keep UNDER MY BODY (I, Me, Myself), and BRING IT INTO SUBJECTION: lest that by any means, when I have PREACHED to others, I MYSELF should be a CASTAWAY” 1 Corinthians 9:26-27.

Herein are some common sayings by others and the scriptural sayings too, that are worth pondering – [meditating and thinking] – about and through, in cause of your doing life and living godly,, in respect to time and in matters of your ATTITUDE [CHARACTER and INTEGRITY]:

“People of genius are admired.

People of wealth are envied.

People of power are feared.

But only people of CHARACTER are TRUSTED” – Arthur Friedman

“Be it known that the good of riches, friends, certificates, politics, charisma, enterprise and such like the more, may take you to the top, but only INTEGRITY will keep and sustain you there” – Chukie MORSI Snr.

 “And CHARACTER and INTEGRITY are made possible by the indwelling precious, gracious and graceful Holy Spirit, which is given to us on the WORD of God in redemption” – Chukie MORSI Snr.

“When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when CHARACTER is lost, ALL is lost” – Billy Graham

Therefore I say to you my friend, make a wise choice today, for – YOUR ALTITUDE IS WITHIN YOUR REACH BY YOUR ATTITUDE – as you do life and live godly in a daily onward and upward trajectory in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And then you need to keep a sharp eye out for competent men—men who fear God, men of INTEGRITY, men who are INCORRUPTIBLE—and appoint them as LEADERS over groups organized by the thousand, by the hundred, by fifty, and by ten” Exodus 18:21.

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are TRUE, whatever things are NOBLE, whatever things are JUST, whatever things are PURE, whatever things are LOVELY, whatever things are of GOOD REPORT, if there is any VIRTUE and if there is anything PRAISEWORTHY—meditate on these things” Philippians 4:8.

“I BESEECH (BEG) you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye PRESENT your BODIES (FIVE SENSES) a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your REASONABLE service. 2 And be not CONFORMED to this world: but be ye TRANSFORMED by the RENEWING of your mind, that ye may prove what is that GOOD, and ACCEPTABLE, and PERFECT, will of God” Romans 12:1-2.

“I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: 27 but I keep UNDER MY BODY (I, Me, Myself), and BRING IT INTO SUBJECTION: lest that by any means, when I have PREACHED to others, I MYSELF should be a CASTAWAY” 1 Corinthians 9:26-27.

“Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 11 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING: For if we died with Him, We shall also live with Him. 12 If we endure, We shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also will deny us” 2 Timothy 2:10-12.

“But reject profane and old wives’ fables, and EXERCISE yourself toward godliness. 8 For BODILY exercise profits a little, but GODLINESS is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come. 9 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING and worthy of all acceptance. 10 For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe” 1 Timothy 4:7-10.

“That having been JUSTIFIED by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. 8 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to MAINTAIN good works. These things are GOOD and PROFITABLE to men” Titus 3:7-8.

“But the FRUIT (CHARACTER) of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit” Galatians 5:22-25.

TRIUMPHING OVER THE EFFECT Of LIVING IN THE FLESH [THE FIVE SENSES]

By Leave a Comment

TRIUMPHING OVER THE EFFECT Of LIVING IN THE FLESH [THE FIVE SENSES]: THE LUST OF THE FLESH – THE LUST OF THE EYES – AND THE PRIDE OF LIFE!

“From whence come WARS and FIGHTINGS among you? come they not hence, even of your LUSTS that WAR in your MEMBERS? 2 Ye LUST, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may CONSUME it upon your LUSTS” James 4:1-3.

Knowingly or unknowingly, TRIUMPH and TRIUMPHING is a default DONE DEED for every believing child of God in Christ Jesus stead. However, it’s operations in the Believer’s life, depends on the individual to make it happen within the pure context of the given redemption rights and privileges, and not in anywhere irrespective.

“Now thanks be unto God, WHICH ALWAYS CAUSETH US TO TRIUMPH IN CHRIST, and maketh manifest the SAVOUR of his knowledge by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:24.

And the Scripture wants every Believer in Christ Jesus to LIVE and WALK in the SPIRIT of TRIUMPH, so that they can mortify (crucify) – put to death – the lusts and affections of the FLESH – FIVE SENSES [SEE, HEAR, TASTE, SMELL, TOUCH/FEEL]. Otherwise, there will be wars and infighting within oneself because of the wanting desire that’s born through the cravings of a lustful spirit that’s not ruled, governed, controlled and lead by the TRIUMPH Spirit of dominion.

“This I say then, WALK in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh . . . 24 And they that are Christ’s have CRUCIFIED the flesh with the AFFECTIONS and LUSTS. 25 If we LIVE in the Spirit, let us also WALK in the Spirit” Galatians 5:16, 24-25.

“From whence come WARS and FIGHTINGS among you? come they not hence, even of your LUSTS that WAR in your MEMBERS? 2 Ye LUST, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may CONSUME it upon your LUSTS” James 4:1-3.

The scriptural context thus indicates that we need to do life and live within the sphere of the Holy Spirit leads and guides, but by the by the WORD of God, through our human spirit [Proverbs 20:27; Job 32:8; Job 33:4; Genesis 2:7]. This is what makes one a spirit or spiritual being – a sphere to make you live TRIUMPHANTLY far above just being a human being but as a spiritual being, otherwise known and called a supernatural being, because the human spirit is empowered by the Holy Spirit that dwells within you – that indicates that the Super Spirit of God meets up with the natural [human] spirit of man – making the SUPERNATURAL.

For you are created as a BEING not to BEEN. Indicating there’s no place of vacuum to reach out to God, to be in God or to be with God, in the Kingdom cause, in order to exercise your place as a BEING of God. God operates through His WORD and not in a vacuum, hence you can’t do astral travel or astral projection with God as some may – for in doing so, you only contact demons by such sphere not the God of REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus. And FAITH in God is the mystery of COMMUNICATION to God through His WORD as a BEING – that’s the only possible channel, in order to enhance one to exercise the sphere of a BEING; and FAITH is the resultant and consequence of the HEARING, the HEARING of the WORD of God. Upon FAITH communication we ensure the assured redemption deed of Christ Jesus in us.

“So then FAITH cometh by HEARING, and HEARING BY THE WORD of God” Romans 10:17.

“Holding the MYSTERY of the FAITH in a PURE conscience” 1 Timothy 3:9.

“That the COMMUNICATION OF THY FAITH may become EFFECTUAL by the ACKNOWLEDGING of every GOOD THING which is IN you IN Christ Jesus” Philemon 1:6.

So, there’s the need to FELLOWSHIP with God, in order to enhance the RELATIONSHIP with God, because in God, there’s no sphere place for a VACUUM. This thus indicates that one can’t commune with God outside His WORD for any reason, otherwise there will be satanic interference – For demon’s will always occupy a vacuum hearts not filled up with God’s word [Matthew 12:43-45]. And to commune with God is about LIVING and WALKING in the Spirit – which is of your spirit – [human spirit] and in the truth – [the Word of God]

“When the UNCLEAN SPIRIT is gone out of a man, he WALKETH through DRY PLACES, SEEKING REST, and findeth none. 44 Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it EMPTY, SWEPT, and GARNISHED. 45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more WICKED than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the LAST state of that man is WORSE than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation” Matthew 12:43-45.

“The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the placOUmen ought to worship. 21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” John 4:19-24.

The consequential problems of living outside the sphere of the Spirit leads and guides, is living and walking in the FLESH – in the sphere of FIVE SENSES which are these:

** HEAR/HEARING

** SEE/SEEING

** TASTE/TASTING

** SMELL/SMELLING

** FEEL/TOUCH [FEELING/TOUCHING]

Sadly enough, there is EFFECT – and are EFFECTS – of living in the sphere of the FLESH – FIVE SENSE. These EFFECTS are as written and experienced in the Scriptures which are of these [Genesis 3:1-6; Luke 4:1-13; 1 John 2:15-17]:

*** The LUST of the EYES

*** The LUST of the FLESH

*** The PRIDE of LIFE

These EFFECTS shows up and was experienced at the beginning times by Mrs Eve and Mr Adam at EDEN for which they fell out in Faith [God’s WORD] with God. [Genesis 3:1-7].

These EFFECTS shows up again before Jesus during His Holy Spirit led fasting and praying at the TEMPTATION mountain. And Satan was DEFEATED with his flesh [fleshy] Introductory scheme by the WORD of God that Christ Jesus utilized by Holy Spirit in the lead. [Luke 4:1-13].

Sadly today, these EFFECTS are still at work and hooves around, as satan and cohorts are looking for who will fall to it’s sword [1 Peter 5:8-9]. Will you let it take root in you as many have falling victims over and over again? I hope not.

“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the LUST of the FLESH, and the LUST of the EYES, and the PRIDE of LIFE, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever” 1 John 2:15-17.

“Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY the DEVIL, as a ROARING lion, WALKETH about, SEEKING whom he may DEVOUR: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST IN THE FAITH, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you” 1 Peter 5:8-10.

Unlike Eve and Adam, Jesus TRIUMPH over these five senses EFFECTS by the simple statements – IT IS WRITTEN. Meaning, The WORD TRIUMPH and a NO WORD then means NO TRIUMPH but DEFEAT and FAILURES and REGRETS; and anything outside the WORD, otherwise it will then be Magic, Sorcery, Traditional belief, dogmas, falsehoods, adulteration, Man-made make-belief’s, denominational indoctrination, by-law and creeds, and such like.

Therefore, lets TRIUMPH, by LIVING and WALKING in the Spirit by the WORD of God, that we might not fulfill the DESIRES and DEEDS and EFFECTS of the FLESH through lust.

BE BLESSED.

There’s GREAT POWER To FUNCTION In LOVE

By Leave a Comment

There’s GREAT POWER To FUNCTION In LOVE: And GREAT GRACE To BECOME In What LOVE Entails!

“And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:33.

God’s LOVE it’s of the HUMAN HEARTS and it’s express effortlessly by the precious and blessed Holy Spirit of promise; outside it, is PERVERTS, hence no man can genuinely LOVE in the fullness beside what is Scripturally entails.

“Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been POURED out in our HEARTS by the Holy Spirit who was GIVEN to us” Romans 5:5 NKJV.

There’s the need to MANIFEST and DEMONSTRATE God’s kind of Love to this generation and dispensation. A world full of LOVE PERVERTS that’s indescribable in lusts and affections, hatred, evil and wickedness.

“For the EARNEST EXPECTATION of the CREATURE (CREATION) waiteth for the MANIFESTATION of the sons of God . . . 28 And we know that ALL THINGS work together for good to them that LOVE God, to them who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE” Romans 8:19, 28 (Emphasis Mine).

Manifesting and demonstrating God’s love is of the Holy Spirit embedded in human hearts, that is – the human spirit (Romans 5:5; Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Amplified). Outside it are acts of perversions. Hence there are many evils and in fightings today in the name of love (James 4:1-5/Galatians 5:24-25).

Loving God and experiencing His eternal purpose for you is of the human spirit, because God’s love is poured or shared only in our hearts by the Holy Spirit; and from that human hearts (spirit being) we can manifest and demonstrate God’s love in us. It thus indicates, when you can’t receive and comprehends God’s love in your spirit being to manifest and demonstrate it by the Holy Spirit, it turns to PERVERTS. Hence many today have in the name of love which is of the head (senses) and not of the hearts (spirit) done many silly, evil and dangerous acts that’s too marveling to comprehend (Proverbs 20:27/Galatians 5:24).

For example, when you keep BEATING UP your spouse and yet say to her or him – I LOVE YOU. That’s pervert and demonic, because it’s only in the head. When it’s of the hearts by the Holy Spirit, you won’t think or imagine to do that at all.

For God gives the POWER to FUNCTION in LOVE and the GRACE to BECOME what Love entails!

The Scriptural writ of the Acts of the Apostles indicates that the Holy Spirit is of – POWER to FUNCTION – Acts 1:8/Acts 4:33; and of GRACE to BECOME – Hebrews 10:29/Zechariah 12:10/Acts 4:33.

It thus mean in the context of LOVE with God, one can’t genuinely acclaim to love God and still struggle to be in His presence, pray, read the Bible, fellowship with like-minded believers and more – 1 John 5:1-3. God’s love when it’s of the heart – human spirit – by the Holy Spirit, life is at ease, there’s no room for excuses because God don’t excuse Himself, for He is love and in you.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK – about it. I know that very much. Do you?

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:33.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED abroad in our HEARTS (Human spirit) by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us” Romans 5:5 (Emphasis Mine).

“LOVE is to be SINCERE and ACTIVE [the real thing—without GUILE and HYPOCRISY]. Hate what is evil [detest all ungodliness, do not tolerate wickedness]; hold on tightly to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another with [authentic] brotherly affection [as members of one family], give preference to one another in honor; 11 never lagging behind in diligence; aglow in the Spirit, enthusiastically serving the Lord; 12 constantly rejoicing in hope [because of our confidence in Christ], steadfast and patient in distress, devoted to prayer [continually seeking wisdom, guidance, and strength], 13 contributing to the needs of God’s people, pursuing [the practice of] hospitality” Romans 12:8-13 Amplified.

“For the EARNEST EXPECTATION of the creature waiteth for the MANIFESTATION of the sons of God . . . 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that LOVE God, to them who are the CALLED according to his purpose. 29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he CALLED, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he JUSTIFIED, them he also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:19, 28-30.

“Beloved, let us [unselfishly] love and seek the best for one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves [others] is born of God and knows God [through personal experience]. 8 The one who does not love has not become acquainted with God [does not and never did know Him], for God is love. [He is the originator of love, and it is an enduring attribute of His nature.] 9 By this the love of God was displayed in us, in that God has sent His [One and] only begotten Son [the One who is truly unique, the only One of His kind] into the world so that we might live through Him. 10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation [that is, the atoning sacrifice, and the satisfying offering] for our sins [fulfilling God’s requirement for justice against sin and placating His wrath]. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us [in this incredible way], we also ought to love one another. 12 No one has seen God at any time. But if we love one another [with unselfish concern], God abides in us, and His love [the love that is His essence abides in us and] is completed and perfected in us. 13 By this we know [with confident assurance] that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given to us His [Holy] Spirit. 14 We [who were with Him in person] have seen and testify [as eye-witnesses] that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world. 15 Whoever confesses and acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. 16 We have come to know [by personal observation and experience], and have believed [with deep, consistent faith] the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides continually in him. 17 In this [union and fellowship with Him], love is completed and perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him]; because as He is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love [dread does not exist]. But perfect (complete, full-grown) love drives out fear, because fear involves [the expectation of divine] punishment, so the one who is afraid [of God’s judgment] is not perfected in love [has not grown into a sufficient understanding of God’s love]. 19 We love, because He first loved us. 20 If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates (works against) his [Christian] brother he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen. 21 And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should also [unselfishly] love his brother and seek the best for him” 1 John 4:7-21 Amplified.

“. . .  17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through your faith. And may you, having been [deeply] ROOTED and [securely] GROUNDED in LOVE, 18 be fully capable of comprehending with all the saints (God’s people) the width and length and height and depth of His LOVE [fully experiencing that amazing, endless love]; 19 and [that you may come] to know [practically, through personal experience] the LOVE of Christ which far SURPASSES [mere] knowledge [without experience], that you may be filled up [throughout your being] to all the fullness of God [so that you may have the richest experience of God’s presence in your lives, completely filled and flooded with God Himself] . . .” Ephesians 3:15-21 Amplified.

TRIUMPHING OVER THE EFFECT Of LIVING IN THE FLESH

TRIUMPHING OVER THE EFFECT Of LIVING IN THE FLESH – THE FIVE SENSES: THE LUST OF THE FLESH – THE LUST OF THE EYES – AND THE PRIDE OF LIFE!

Knowingly or unknowingly, TRIUMPH and TRIUMPHING is a default DONE DEED for every believing child of God in Christ Jesus stead.

“Now thanks be unto God, WHICH ALWAYS CAUSETH US TO TRIUMPH IN CHRIST, and maketh manifest the SAVOUR of his knowledge by us in EVERY PLACE” 2 Corinthians 2:24.

And the Scripture wants every Believer in Christ Jesus to LIVE and WALK in the SPIRIT of TRIUMPH, so that they can mortify (crucify) – put to death – the lusts and affections of the flesh – five senses.

“This I say then, WALK in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh . . . 24 And they that are Christ’s have CRUCIFIED the flesh with the AFFECTIONS and LUSTS. 25 If we LIVE in the Spirit, let us also WALK in the Spirit” Galatians 5:16, 24-25.

The scriptural context thus indicates that we need to do life and live within the sphere of the Holy Spirit leads and guides, by the WORD of God, through our human spirit (Proverbs 20:27; Job 32:8; Job 33:4; Genesis 2:7). This is what makes one a spirit or spiritual being – a sphere to make you live TRIUMPHANTLY far above just being a human being but as a spiritual being, otherwise a supernatural being that’s Empowered by the Holy Spirit that dwells within you.

For you are created as a BEING not to BEEN. Indicating there’s no place of vacuum to God, in God or with God in the Kingdom cause in order to exercise your place as a BEING of God.

And FAITH in God is the mystery of COMMUNICATION to God as a BEING – that’s the only possible channel, in order to enhance one to exercise the sphere of a BEING (1 Timothy 3:9), and FAITH is the resultant and consequence of the HEARING, the HEARING of the WORD of God (Romans 10:17).

So, to FELLOWSHIP with God, in order to enhance the RELATIONSHIP with God, there’s no sphere place for a VACUUM. Thus indicates that one can’t commune with God outside His WORD for any reason, otherwise there will be satanic interference (Matthew 12:43-45). And to commune with God is about LIVING and WALKING in the Spirit – which is of your spirit and in the truth – the Word of God (John 4:19-24).

The consequential problems of living outside the sphere of the Spirit leads and guides, is living and walking in the FLESH – in the sphere of FIVE SENSES which are these:

** Hear/Hearing

** See/Seeing

** Taste/Tasting

** Smell/Smelling

** Feel/Touch Feeling/Touching

Sadly enough, there is EFFECT – and are EFFECTS – of living in the sphere of the FLESH – FIVE SENSE.

These EFFECTS are these (Genesis 3:1-6; Luke 4:1-13; 1 John 2:15-17):

*** The LUST of the EYES

*** The LUST of the FLESH

*** The PRIDE of LIFE

These EFFECTS was shown at the beginning by Mrs. Eve and Mr. Adam at EDEN for which they fell out in Faith with God.

These EFFECTS shows up again before Jesus during His Holy Spirit led fasting and praying at the TEMPTATION mountain. And Satan was defeated with the flesh Introductory scheme.

Sadly today, these EFFECTS are still at work and hooves around, looking for who will fall to its sword. Will you let it take root in you as many have falling victims over and over again? I hope not.

Unlike Eve and Adam, Jesus TRIUMPH over these five senses EFFECTS by the simple statements – IT IS WRITTEN. Meaning, NO WORD, NO TRIUMPH. Otherwise it will be Magic, Sorcerer, Traditional dogmas, falsehoods, adulteration, Man-made believes, denominational by-law and creeds, and such like.

Therefore, lets TRIUMPH, by LIVING and WALKING in the Spirit by the WORD of God, that we might not fulfill the DEEDS – EFFECTS – of the FLESH.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

BE BLESSED.

LIFE CHOICES – Dealing With The TRINITY Within

LIFE CHOICES – Dealing With The TRINITY Within – The I, ME, MYSELF: The Three ENEMIES That HINDERS Desired ALTITUDE!

“I therefore so RUN, NOT AS UNCERTAINLY; so FIGHT I, NOT AS ONE THAT BEATETH THE AIR: 27 but I keep UNDER MY BODY (I, ME, MYSELF), and BRING IT INTO SUBJECTION: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I MYSELF should be a castaway” 1 Corinthians 9:26-27 Emphasis Mine.

Every one craves for a high and higher rise in life. There’s the more earnest desire for an onward and upward trajectory irrespective of any, and it’s deepened in every human subconscious thoughts. And higher heights are born in our ATTITUDE for such ALTITUDE we earnestly desired and yearns daily to attain. Unfortunately for some, the enemies within them have created their stunted growth and success and excellence and such like.

The THREE ENEMIES within that needs to be brought under if one must constantly be ahead in LIFE and GODLINESS are these:

 ** The lust of the flesh

 ** The lust of the eyes

 ** The pride of life

These three ENEMIES comes from the trinity within us – I, ME and MYSELF otherwise the Me, Me and Me attitude.

Life is about CHOICE and CHOICES – and to being mindful and to not being mindful, of these three elements, which can make and unmake your worlds of success and fulfillment and excellence, in LIFE and GODLINESS, is worth pondering about. Hence there’s the need to diligently check and guard your being by the Holy Spirit of any of the signs and presence of these elements in the light of the WORD of God.

You are the DECIDED of your ARISING and ALTITUDE, therefore make the wise CHOICE today – to bring your body under; I mean the five SENSES trinity of I, ME, MYSELF, in subjection to the Holy Spirit guide and guard, under the authority and power of the word of God. That’s the only Kingdom cause way to have Dominion, be more than conquerors, an overcomer, be triumphant and victorious in doing life and living godly in every way in God’s BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

Know full well that your ATTITUDE indicates your CHARACTER. Your CHARACTER indicates your PERSON. And your PERSON, which is born of your ATTITUDE does not only defines you, but it’s what will SUSTAIN you in your desired ALTITUDE when you arrived at it. Hence a no GOOD ATTITUDE means an ILLUSION to your DESIRED ALTITUDE and SUSTAINABILITY in the POSITION of ALTITUDE.

Herein are common and scriptural sayings that are worth pondering – meditating and thinking – through, in cause of doing life in time and in matters of ATTITUDE (CHARACTER and INTEGRITY):

** “People of genius are admired.

People of wealth are envied.

People of power are feared.

But only people of CHARACTER are TRUSTED” – Arthur Friedman

** “Be it known that the good of riches, friends, certificates, politics, charisma, enterprise and such like the more, may take you to the top, but only INTEGRITY will keep and sustain you there” – Chukie MORSI Snr.

** “And CHARACTER and INTEGRITY are made possible by the indwelling precious, gracious and graceful Holy Spirit, which is given to us in the WORD” – Chukie MORSI Snr.

** “When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when CHARACTER is lost, ALL is lost” – Billy Graham.

In that God is Love and sees, Love sees also and it’s not blind as religion and society has taught us. God is not blind to issues but decides on issues with a seeing eyes hence one should not be blind to life issues and in making decisions on it; for it’s harmful and to only realise and regret afterwards with blame or fault finding excuses.

You can exercise and enact genuine LOVE by FAITH in Christ Jesus. For FAITH works by LOVE.

There’s GREAT POWER To FUNCTION In LOVE

By Leave a Comment

There’s GREAT POWER To FUNCTION In LOVE: And GREAT GRACE To BECOME What LOVE Entails!

“And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:33.

God’s LOVE it’s of the HUMAN HEARTS and it’s express effortlessly by the precious and blessed Holy Spirit of promise; outside it, is PERVERTS, hence no man can genuinely LOVE in the fullness beside what is Scripturally entails.

“Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been POURED out in our HEARTS by the Holy Spirit who was GIVEN to us” Romans 5:5 NKJV.

There’s the need to MANIFEST and DEMONSTRATE God’s kind of Love to this generation and dispensation. A world full of LOVE PERVERTS that’s indescribable in lusts and affections, hatred, evil and wickedness.

“For the EARNEST EXPECTATION of the CREATURE (CREATION) waiteth for the MANIFESTATION of the sons of God . . . 28 And we know that ALL THINGS work together for good to them that LOVE God, to them who are the CALLED according to his PURPOSE” Romans 8:19, 28 (Emphasis Mine).

Manifesting and demonstrating God’s love is of the Holy Spirit embedded in human hearts, that is – the human spirit (Romans 5:5; Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Amplified). Outside it are acts of perversions. Hence there are many evils and fighting today in the name of love (James 4:1-5/Galatians 5:24-25).

Loving God and experiencing His eternal purpose for you is of the human spirit, because God’s love is poured or shared only in our hearts by the Holy Spirit; and from that human hearts (spirit being) we can manifest and demonstrate God’s love in us. It thus indicates, when you can’t receive and comprehends God’s love in your spirit being to manifest and demonstrate it by the Holy Spirit, it turns to PERVERTS. Hence many today have in the name of love which is of the head (senses) and not of the hearts (spirit) done many silly, evil and dangerous acts that’s too marveling to comprehend (Proverbs 20:27/Galatians 5:24).

For example, when you keep BEATING UP your spouse and yet say to her or him – I LOVE YOU. That’s pervert and demonic, because it’s only in the head. When it’s of the hearts by the Holy Spirit, you won’t think or imagine to do that at all.

For God gives the POWER to FUNCTION in LOVE and the GRACE to BECOME what Love entails!

The Scriptural writ of the Acts of the Apostles indicates that the Holy Spirit is of – POWER to FUNCTION – Acts 1:8/Acts 4:33; and of GRACE to BECOME – Hebrews 10:29/Zechariah 12:10/Acts 4:33.

It thus mean in the context of LOVE with God, one can’t genuinely acclaim to love God and still struggle to be in His presence, pray, read the Bible, fellowship with like-minded believers and more – 1 John 5:1-3. God’s love when it’s of the heart – human spirit – by the Holy Spirit, life is at ease, there’s no room for excuses because God don’t excuse Himself, for He is love and in you.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK – about it. I know that very much. Do you?

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“And with GREAT POWER gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and GREAT GRACE was upon them all” Acts 4:33.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is SHED abroad in our HEARTS (Human spirit) by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us” Romans 5:5 (Emphasis Mine).

“LOVE is to be SINCERE and ACTIVE [the real thing—without GUILE and HYPOCRISY]. Hate what is evil [detest all ungodliness, do not tolerate wickedness]; hold on tightly to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another with [authentic] brotherly affection [as members of one family], give preference to one another in honor; 11 never lagging behind in diligence; aglow in the Spirit, enthusiastically serving the Lord; 12 constantly rejoicing in hope [because of our confidence in Christ], steadfast and patient in distress, devoted to prayer [continually seeking wisdom, guidance, and strength], 13 contributing to the needs of God’s people, pursuing [the practice of] hospitality” Romans 12:8-13 Amplified.

“For the EARNEST EXPECTATION of the creature waiteth for the MANIFESTATION of the sons of God . . . 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that LOVE God, to them who are the CALLED according to his purpose. 29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did PREDESTINATE, them he also CALLED: and whom he CALLED, them he also JUSTIFIED: and whom he JUSTIFIED, them he also GLORIFIED” Romans 8:19, 28-30.

“Beloved, let us [unselfishly] love and seek the best for one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves [others] is born of God and knows God [through personal experience]. 8 The one who does not love has not become acquainted with God [does not and never did know Him], for God is love. [He is the originator of love, and it is an enduring attribute of His nature.] 9 By this the love of God was displayed in us, in that God has sent His [One and] only begotten Son [the One who is truly unique, the only One of His kind] into the world so that we might live through Him. 10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation [that is, the atoning sacrifice, and the satisfying offering] for our sins [fulfilling God’s requirement for justice against sin and placating His wrath]. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us [in this incredible way], we also ought to love one another. 12 No one has seen God at any time. But if we love one another [with unselfish concern], God abides in us, and His love [the love that is His essence abides in us and] is completed and perfected in us. 13 By this we know [with confident assurance] that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given to us His [Holy] Spirit. 14 We [who were with Him in person] have seen and testify [as eye-witnesses] that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world. 15 Whoever confesses and acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. 16 We have come to know [by personal observation and experience], and have believed [with deep, consistent faith] the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides continually in him. 17 In this [union and fellowship with Him], love is completed and perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him]; because as He is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love [dread does not exist]. But perfect (complete, full-grown) love drives out fear, because fear involves [the expectation of divine] punishment, so the one who is afraid [of God’s judgment] is not perfected in love [has not grown into a sufficient understanding of God’s love]. 19 We love, because He first loved us. 20 If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates (works against) his [Christian] brother he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen. 21 And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should also [unselfishly] love his brother and seek the best for him” 1 John 4:7-21 Amplified.

There’s the need to MANIFEST and DEMONSTRATE God’s kind of Love to this generation and dispensation. A world full of LOVE PERVERTS that’s indescribable in lusts and affections, hatred, evil and wickedness.

Manifesting and demonstrating God’s love is of the Holy Spirit embedded in human hearts, that is – the human spirit (Romans 5:5; Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Amplified). Outside it are an acts of perversions. Hence there are many evils and in fightings today in the name of love (James 4:1-5/Galatians 5:24-25).

Loving God and experiencing His eternal purpose for you is of the human spirit, because God’s love is poured or shared only in our hearts by the Holy Spirit; and from that human hearts (spirit being) we can manifest and demonstrate God’s love in us. It thus indicates, when you can’t receive and comprehends God’s love in your spirit being to manifest and demonstrate it by the Holy Spirit, it turns to PERVERTS. Hence many today have in the name of love which is of the head (senses) and not of the hearts (spirit) done many silly, evil and dangerous acts that’s too marvelling to comprehend (Proverbs 20:27/Galatians 5:24).

For example, when you keep BEATING UP  your spouse and yet say to her or him – I LOVE YOU. That’s pervert and demonic, because it’s only in the head. When it’s of the hearts by the Holy Spirit, you won’t think or imagine to do that at all.

For God gives the POWER to FUNCTION in LOVE and the GRACE to BECOME what Love entails!

The Scriptural writ of the Acts of the Apostles indicates that the Holy Spirit is of – POWER to FUNCTION – Acts 1:8; and of GRACE to BECOME – Hebrews 10:29/Zechariah 12:10.

It thus mean in the context of LOVE with God, one can’t genuinely acclaim to love God and still struggle to be in His presence, pray, read the Bible, fellowship with like minded believers and more – 1 John 5:1-3. God’s love when its of the heart – human spirit – by the Holy Spirit, life is at ease, there’s no room for excuses because God don’t excuse Himself, for He is love and in you.

Think about it. I know that very much. Do you?

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the LOVE of God is shed abroad in our HEARTS (Human spirit) by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us” Romans 5:5 (Emphasis Mine).
